Many congratulations on getting in on the course and even more so as you're at least 4 years younger than the rest of them. :thumbsup:

AND, I might add, that's quite a collection of watches you have in your signature for a 16 year old too!

Hi Yes the collection is sheared between me and my dad, I used to work on a saturday in a jewellery shop and in my holidays and so my bit of money went on watches and my mum and dad put the rest too, As my dad also likes watches. As watches are my passion I email lots of brands and I got sponsored to do my dream to become a watchmaker. So when I have finished I will be 18.

And thank you very much for you're support. :D :D

I don't recall any of out BS members becoming a watchmaker, so very well done! Best of luck with your studies. If you feel up to posting regular updates, I'd certainly be interested in hearing how you're getting on.

Well there is member Crasian who I recall is about the same age as Joe. Dont know if he's pursuing a career but nevertheless it's awesome to see the young guys keep the tradition alive.
